do you have any more detail to this procedure? i have never disassembled a lifter before. and where do you put the nut? thanks

i already have the length checker, just looking on how to use it correctly. i do have check springs that came with my cam degree and dial kit. so if i use the soft springs i can use my hydraulic roller lifters and not have to purchase a solid lifter?

looking for a write up or site on how to correctly check for pushrod length with adjustable rod. do i have to use a mechanical solid lifter for this procedure and when checking piston to valve clearance? i guess i could buy just a cheap one from local auto parts.

the only thing to do is to cut the rib/ lip from the factory fuel lines off and install a brass compression fitting on the stock lines connecting to your braided line

second the valve. may have a valve seat or push rod issue. possibly a worn lifter.did you put all the valve train pieces back in the same number cylinder

i do not have a new timing set, sorry if i made it sound like that in my rambling. but i did use both new and old thrust plate (same bolts) with both comp cam and stock cam. all had exact same results. i also checked my rear engine plug and its correct.

what i dont understand is that its the same timing set i took off. i didnt change anything. and now i put it back together and it hits the bolts and binds up

if i were to counter sink the plate it would take away too much material and greatly weaken the bolt "ears", more than they already are. something just isnt right.

end play was zero. it wouldnt budge when torqued to spec, because the gear was hitting the thrust plate bolt heads. crank wouldnt even turn, but with just the cam and thrust plate end play was 1.350, which is way too much. i installed the old cam ( how it was when i took it apart (running...

its a comp cam xe270hr-14 grind. it is the exact same on the bolt end of the stock cam. also its a stock timing set with the same bolts i removed. yes the thust plate is on correctly, as well as the gears. it looks like im missing some sort of spacer or bearing. but i never removed any. anybody...

i installed cam and crank assembly, went smooth no problems. i installed new cam thrust plate and timing set and torqued cam gear bolt to spec(40-45ftlb) now the crank and timing set wont turn. looks like the bolts heads from the thrust plate are hitting back side of cam gear. its binding up...

i started to reassemble my GT-40 heads after a new valve job. i installed new teflon seals and valves. upon cleaning my 1.72 rockers and springs, i noticed that i have 4 different spring sizes at free height. 2 are about 1/4" taller than than the 8 exh and 3/8" taller than the 8 int. when i...

bringing this post back from the dead for the 3rd time. so any updates on this cam? i currently have this cam but not yet installed. i plan on running it with 1.72 rr, gt 40 heads, stock valves (new valve job), stock style pistons and yes heavy springs. but hesitant that it may have too much...

what are some signs of wear to look for on roller lifters?

why is it that you cant use used stock roller lifters with an upgraded used cam? or can you? i dont see why not. just trying to save myself some money since i am already $2000 over my budget. ive searched this topic and all i find is people saying you have to use new lifters with a used cam. but...

got the locking ring off, but its in pretty bad shape. can you buy the locking ring assembly and replace them? ive searched the web and couldnt find anything about it.

maf conversion? did you upgrade your mass air meter? if so is it calibrated with your injectors. just a thought

the locking ring assembly is so rusted i can't budge it loose. its been soaking in penatrating oil for hours. ive got 2 tabs left on the locking ring to tap at, the other 2 broke off on the first strike.... if i break the other 2 off then what.......? im really not wanting to purchase a whole...
